A High School Principal Criticized ‘All The Black People’ At Graduation And People Are Furious

The graduation ceremony at Georgia’s TNT Academy this past Friday took a turn for the awkward after the school’s principal made a remark about “all the black people” during the event. The school’s founder and principal Nancy Gordeuk had made a mistake in the program, skipping over the class Valedictorian’s speech and causing some confusion among the attendees. Several started to leave and prompted Gordeuk to take action, leading to the incident captured in these videos.

“Frustrated with the prospect of ruining the once-in-a-lifetime ceremony the graduates have worked so hard for, my emotions got the best of me and that is when I blurted out ‘you people are being so rude to not listen to this speech,'” Gordeuk wrote in an apology letter. “I deeply apologize for my actions made in the emotional state of trying to let this last student finish his speech,” she wrote.
